After entering the date of research, you can copy electronically the entry from the Family History Library Catalog, or any other electronic medium, for a specific source, pasting the data in the “Source” field of the table. You can then make your comments in the column to the right, indicating by color code (yellow) if something is especially good, or pink for something needing yet to be done.  In the far right column you can enter the key data elements discovered and create a hyperlink from these to the electronic files that have either an image or a text extract. These files are stored in the computer under the “Documents” folder, as shown in this example of a file structure for a one-person case study.
